Ravens to Induct Jamal Lewis into Ring of Honor

Jamal Lewis’ successful six-year tenure with the Baltimore Ravens will be commemorated by the AFC North franchise this fall when he’ll be inducted into the team’s Ring of Honor.

The retired former All-Pro running back will be honored prior to the Ravens’ Sept. 27 game at M&T Bank Stadium against the Cleveland Browns, a nationally televised Thursday night game and the fourth game of the regular season.

Lewis, 32, is the Ravens’ all-time leading rusher with 7,801 yards, gaining 10,607 career yards and scoring 58 touchdowns.

He was named the NFL Offensive Player of the Year in 2003 when he rushed for a career-high 2,066 yards.

A former first-round draft pick from the University of Tennessee, Lewis helped the Ravens win a Super Bowl during his rookie season after being selected with the fifth overall pick. Lewis rushed for 103 yards and a touchdown in the Ravens’ Super Bowl XXXV victory over the New York Giants.
